Way too funny!!

Ha - you live long enough and decide never to be bored by it, then you can squeeze a heck of a lot in!

'' don't the best sports players have a short memory.''

You are correct - but it is in fact possible to be able to do both. In fact it is crucial to be able to do both.

The key is that during a game, you have to have the ability to ''flush it'' and get on with the next kick (or pass, or catch, or serve, whatever) but at the same time, you have to then - after the game - be able to go back, with perfect, cold-eye, recall and analyse what you did or didn't do and then learn from it.

That was exactly what my response was to Leoheart when he said only study your wins and ignore yours loses.

"I'm all for studying winning trades, but if traders spent the same amount of time studying losses and seeing 1) if they could have done something different, 2) making sure that the loss was an acceptable loss (meaning it was part of a trading plan). Then there would be a lot more profitable traders I believe."

I have a feeling we are pretty much saying the same thing.

So whats next for Lem to not be bored by life? Bounty hunter, treasure hunter. Professional forex teacher

Sometimes people are missunderstood, its ok just part of life. Was I truly saying to ignore your loses and only study for wins?

My comments were directed towards struggling traders. When all you see is mostly loss and you focus on mostly loss, what you think you end up with? Yes learning from your mistakes in part of the process, but isn't it hard to focus on what is working when your blowing account after account from repeatedly learning from your mistakes and changing your system? That is why I said, first show me what I am doing right then if needed correct my mistakes. Trading is unlike any other profession. Must trades can be millionaires within a first year, if they would only focus and stick to what works for them whether tracking efforts visually or not.

I didn't mean for that post to sound like I was taking a shot at you or anything. And in reality I agree with pretty much everything you are saying. You actually see it in my threads and post. I always preach trading the same trade setup over and over until your profitable and keeping it as simple as possible until you are profitable.

And just like you said " if they would only focus and stick to what works for them" is exactly the path I took to be a consistent and profitable trader. Then at that point I slowly add stuff that I thought would be helpful in my trading and discarded the rest.

This was an excellent discussion tho on the mental side of this game. The bad part is most members will ignore it cuz there was no talk about actual trading.

I agree, Most will remain on the 1st layer and never reach layer 2 (Rise of the silent ones).
